According to the police report obtained by WLWT, "we observed a single set of shoe prints in the snow leaving the Steak 'n Shake front door and leading back across the street to Home Depot, through the east side parking lot, to the east side of the building, over a short wall to the west side of the Comfort Suites hotel."

When officers entered the hotel, they followed the wet shoe prints on the tile flooring to a set of carpeted stairs. Hotel staff told officers a family had been staying in two separate rooms since mid-February.

Officers were given permission to search the juvenile's room and found a handgun, black clothing, backpack and money. The teens confessed to the crime and told officers that one of the juveniles acted as the lookout while the gunman went inside.
